Hi, this seems expensive compared to others, is the extra cost justified? Thanks.

Hi Tom, Abu Garcia is a reputable brand and their products must be of a decent standard to carry the name. I did a fair amount of research before making the purchase because I would usually expect to pay more for a rod/reel combo that meets my expectations. Unfortunately, the rod arrived with the end guide missing which is still in the process of being resolved. As such, I have not been able to use it, frustrating! Despite the product being faulty, if it has to be returned for a refund I would definitely source another ‘black ops’ exactly the same. I think I’ve just been unlucky with this experience.

How does this arrive in the post? Does the reel come in a box and also does the rod have a cover with it?

No rod cover and no box for reel, when mine arrived it was a cardboard box and inside was a bit of card screwed up with the rod and reel loosely together

Will it with stand pike ??

Its a good rod and real combo 👌 And well worth the price

There is no braking strain just a casting weight which on side of rod
